Esta obra versa sobre a possibilidade de dispor em testamento cuidados aos animais de estimação, tendo em vista que, considerados como membros familiares, seus tutores estão cada vez mais preocupados em mantê-los, depois da sua morte, com os mesmos cuidados que possuíam até então. Isso porque não apenas a relação homem e animal não humano teve significativa evolução, as próprias constituições familiares tiveram suas mudanças, com o devido respaldo legal, cabendo assim nas chamadas famílias multiespécies. Será demonstrado que essa interação entre homens e animais não humanos não é algo contemporâneo, mas, sim, que perdura por anos, tanto que é narrada e analisada por diversas ciências há séculos. O objetivo específico desta obra é demonstrar, do ponto de vista prático, que mesmo não sendo os animais de estimação considerados herdeiros, dentro da lei vigente, é possível, através do testamento com legado, que os tutores dos animais de estimação assegurem os seus direitos.
This volume presents a collection of reviews derived from work presented at the Aegean Conference: “5th Crossroads Between Innate and Adaptive Immunity”. This meeting was the fifth in a series, and assembled a team of scientists working on mechanisms by which the innate immune system of the host senses pathogens, the cellular and signaling networks that orchestrate the innate response and antigen presentation and adaptive immunity. The importance of the crosstalk between innate immunity and the adaptive immune response has only recently started to be appreciated. Although it is well recognized that dendritic cells, NK cells, NK-T cells and T cells are all critical for the host response t...
In Individuals and Materials in the Greco-Roman Cults of Isis Valentino Gasparini and Richard Veymiers present a collection of reflections on the individuals and groups which animated one of Antiquity’s most dynamic, significant and popular religious phenomena: the reception of the cults of Isis and other Egyptian gods throughout the Hellenistic and Roman worlds. These communities, whose members seem to share the same religious identity, for a long time have been studied in a monolithic way through the prism of the Cumontian category of the “Oriental religions”. The 26 contributions of this book, divided into three sections devoted to the “agents”, their “images” and their “practices”, shed new light on this religious movement that appears much more heterogeneous and colorful than previously recognized.

This book is a succinct and readable account of recent research at Gordion, the ancient capital of Phrygia, long one of the key sites for understanding Iron Age Anatolia. The regional survey at Gordion has involved a range of interdisciplinary studies—archaeological, environmental, and ethnoarchaeological—to produce an unusually comprehensive understanding of how the landscape evolved, the patterns of settlement during the rise and fall of the Phrygian state, and its environmental constraints. With a history of excavation of over a century, Gordion has yielded a vast store of material culture, some of which is spectacular. The Midas tumulus, the architecture of the Phrygian citadel, and the artifacts from several decades of excavations present unique challenges and solutions for conservation methodology. Analyses of these artifacts are providing new insights into the political and economic relationships of this region, particularly from the Early Iron Age to the Roman period. Presenting current work at Gordion contributes to the broader understanding of archaeology across the region and around the world.
